Retro Rides has confirmed details of its first event of 2021. The Retro Rides Weekender will be held at Goodwood over the weekend of 29 and 30 May.
The main theme for this year’s event is ‘Deadline’ – as in garages across the land, midnight oil is being burned to get cars ready to show for the first time.
‘Stock vs. custom’ is another theme, say the organisers, with standard and modified versions of cars positioned next to each other.
A supercar paddock will also feature, celebrating retro wedges from the 1970s through to the start of the hypercar era in the early 2000s. There will be opportunities for owners to take cars out onto the historic Goodwood circuit.
Retro Rides added capacity is limited to 3,500 people per day for safety reasons, in accordance with government guidelines. Tickets are priced from £12 per day, although the cost is set to increase to £20 from Monday.
“We’re thrilled to be back at the historic Goodwood circuit. It’s been a challenging and tumultuous time over the last year, but we couldn’t be more pleased to be able to return to shows across the UK, said David Murphy, head of events at Retro Rides.
“As a team, we’re building on the success of our previous events by bringing together the best of the UK retro scene along with hot rods, race cars, restomods and all the huge diversity of machines that make up the Retro Rides world.
“It’s exciting to be able to have track action on both days again this year, along with the central display paddocks, specially curated displays and visitors’ cars across the site.”
